whether obama given a second chance at change anti-war activists john glaser says there are one be any noticeable shift in the president's policies. as is typical with politicians what they say is very different from what they do there is a broad bipartisan consensus on some of the most terrible. security issues that affect us on the domestic front i mean for example warrantless wiretapping this is a policy that was why it leakers. when the bush administration was in power and now the obama administration has you know uniformly embraced it the obama administration has aggressively refused to allow any checks and balances and has even refused congressional requests to disclose how many americans are for been spied on so things like that i mean a really troubling and i don't think he's going to get as much pushback from congress as as one might hope in the foreign policy realm obama has unfortunately continued much of his predecessor's excesses and recklessness we will see a continuation of foreign policy of extreme interventionism getting involved in every corner of the planet. regardle

i'm want here to relitigate john's trial. he pled guilty to one instance of giving the name to a cia operative. many of us who signed the letter believe that this should be put in perspective. john is a cia officer who served very bravely for his country for more than a decade overseas. in some of the most dangerous places of the world. he most notably led the team that went in and captured abu zubada in 2002. the first senior al qaeda figure captured after 9/11. the capture of el zubada was critical to the line of captures that ultimately led to the death of osama bin laden. secondly, there is precedent here for commutation of this offense. four years ago -- scooter libby had leaked the name of a cia officer valley plame to the press. i would say he did it deliberately and i would say maliciously. that did badly damage a cia operational capability. yet, his sentence was commuted. let's put john's situation in some perspective. does the punishment fit the crime here? i think he has already been punished a lot. he has incurred
